I was involved with the restoration of this car back in the early 80's for the late Rick Mayne who moved to Australia in 1986 and went on to build up a sizeable collection of 1935 V8's over there.
You are correct in saying it had been a hot rod prior to him obtaining it however I would not say it was radical.
The body was still stock but the motor and transmission had been upgraded.
This vehicle became part of this collection about 1985.
